In today’s episode, Amanda sits down over some cannabis tea with agent and manager Alix Kazman (Fountainhead Talent) to discuss misconceptions about being an agent, scary movie recommendations, and an allergic reaction that changed her career path. After studying theatre at Dalhousie University, Alix decided performing was not for her, but she still loved the entertainment industry. She worked in make-up and special effects for 7 years until she woke up one morning with a severe allergic reaction to, what she later found out was, a common ingredient in make-up. This abruptly ended her make-up career, forcing her to make a professional pivot. From there she worked in casting for a while before finding a home at Fountainhead Talent as a talent agent and manager. She also happens to be my agent! Does she still want to be my agent by the end of this interview? Let’s find out! lol

The Liquid Courage Podcast

Hey, I’m Amanda Pereira. I’m an actor, comedian, and creator based out of Toronto, Canada, and I get stuck in my head. A lot. I put a lot of pressure on myself, and if I can’t do something perfectly I don’t do it at all. I’ve wanted to start this podcast for years and I rewrote this description too many times to count. Admitting that feels scary because now I’m wondering if you’re surprised that I settled on this as the final product. See what I mean?But I’m really tired of trying to be perfect and constantly doubting myself. Like, I need a nap. It’s makes me withdraw from the people around me and it feels impossible to make new friends. When I meet people, I’m so focused on only showing the parts of myself that I think they would like, that I might as well not even be there. This imposter syndrome is even worse when I’m around fellow actors and artists, which leaves me feeling disconnected, like I “know” a ton of people in the acting and comedy community, without really knowing them at all. And damn does that ever feel lonely.But this year I’m turning 30 years old, and enough is enough! Enter: The Liquid Courage Podcast…Each week I will sit down with a different woman in the entertainment industry that I admire, that up until now I’ve felt inferior to and flawed in comparison, and finally have a truthful, one-on-one, candid conversation with them. Sound intimidating? Uh, yeah! So, in each episode my guest and I will enjoy their favourite drink (some liquid courage!) to help me get out of my head and finally ask these women the questions I’ve always wanted to.
